The staff were accommodating, however when the train arrives at 11.30 and the check in time is 4 pm and it is very often wet, it can be a long wait. The room was comfortable even though a bit too warm. The bar and restaurant were very good. Over all a positive and enjoyable stay. Great hot water.

The hotel was quaint and cozy. Good bed, everything was clean. We had a room with a shared bathroom in the hallway - the bathroom was also very clean. The walls are a bit thin (we were in the old part of the hotel) but it was mostly quiet during the night. Very friendly, helpful staff.

Nice, small town, and very nice hotel for relatively cheap! Had a friend come with me and we had tons of options for things to do near by. Rooms were clean, staff was friendly.

Hotel Seward is a cute little hotel with lovely decor. Check in was quick and easy. Even got extra pillows delivered to our room as soon as requested. Will definitely be back to stay here.

The creaks on the upper floor makes it impossible to sleep. The historic section is noisy, terribly noisy.

Took three hours to get the room. Finally got the keys at around 7pm. The staff did not look to much bothered from this delay.
